ARM: fix /proc/$PID/stack on SMP
Rabin Vincent reports: | On SMP, this BUG() in save_stack_trace_tsk() can be easily triggered | from user space by reading /proc/$PID/stack, where $PID is any pid but | the current process: | | if (tsk != current) { | #ifdef CONFIG_SMP | /* | * What guarantees do we have here that 'tsk' | * is not running on another CPU? | */ | BUG(); | #else Fix this by replacing the BUG() with an entry to terminate the stack trace, returning an empty trace - I'd rather not expose the dwarf unwinder to a volatile stack of a running thread.
